Let’s hope the snow is gone for good as it’s time to celebrate the beginning of spring the Finnish style! On Sunday 29th of April WSF organizes a Vappu celebration at West of Scotland Cricket Club from 1:30 pm til 4:30 pm.

Programme includes mölkky, tattie race and some other games, raffles, face painting and the fishing game “onginta” for children for a small fee.

Everybody gets a glass of mead (sima) and a Karelian pasty or a cinnamon bun. We have a permission to barbeque outdoors should anyone wish to bring a disposable BBQ and picnic lunch along.

Glasgow Finnish School will run a kiosk with Finnish treats. Glasgow’n laulu performs.

Since Vappu is a happy occasion let’s make it one by wearing bright colours on the day, why not even dress up. Children especially might want to dress up fancy as the best dressed youngster will be rewarded with a special prize

The entrance fee is £3 per person or £5 per household. We ask this money only to cover organization costs.

Let’s welcome the spring together!

West of Scotland Cricket Club address is 40-44 Peel Street, Glasgow, G11 5LU.
